LOAD
LOADING S900/S950 SAMPLES AND PROGRAMS
No special command is provided for S900 samples. Inserting an S900 disk will give you
this display:
Simply select the appropriate load type and proceed as above. The S3000XL display will
inform you when a sample for the S900 is being read, and after each S900 sample has
been successfully read, an additional message, 'unscrambling S900 sample' will appear,
as the S3000XL converts the S900 data to S3000XL format (12-bit to 16-bit).
LOADING S1000/S1100 DATA
There is no compatibility issue with sounds created on an S1000 or S1100 and these can
be loaded with no conversion process. However, there are notes given in the SAVE
MODE section that give details about saving such data from the S3000XL back onto an
S1000/S1100 formatted disk should you wish to do so.
AUTO LOADING FROM DISK
If you turn on the S3000XL with a floppy disk in the drive, the contents of the disk will be
loaded into memory.
operating system is the same or a higher version number than the ROM version, this will
be loaded.
If a hard disk is attached and set to SCSI ID 5 and the operating system is on the first
volume, the operating system will be automatically loaded from this if it is the same or a
higher version than the ROM version and no floppy disk is in the drive at power-on.
It is a good idea for you to make a copy of any Operating System disks for your S3000XL
and always turn on the S3000XL with the latest version inserted in the floppy disk drive
(see SAVE for details on saving operating system to disk).
